- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Review of Climate Action Plan 2024: Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (24 Oct 2024)
Alan Farrell: I thank the Minister for coming before the committee. Yesterday, a far older, wiser and more experienced colleague of ours stated that there are political forces whose role is to find conflict as opposed to identifying ways to collaborate to solve problems. Those forces are on display at this committee. Regarding the €300 million in grant funding the Minister mentioned, will the he...

In view of the time constraints, perhaps the Minister...

Darren O'Rourke: I know we are tight for time but I want to touch on the issue of concrete and I have listened to the Minister's comments on it so far. I hear a lot from the sector that there are new obligations and new levies but that the developed infrastructure is not there to support them to recycle or reuse construction materials. Does the Minister recognise this as a problem and a challenge and what...

Paul Murphy: Has the Minister been lobbied by the data centre industry either individually as data centres or the varying lobbying organisations?
